Mining tool - Undisclosed project/GameCo Studios

Final prop design for an undisclosed project back in 2015. Out of all the designs I ended up doing for it, this was the only one I used a 3D block-out model for provided by the client.


The 'jaws' were based on the earlier Disch Thrower design, I just beefed them up and added the blue 'bumpers' on the front -presumably the user would push it against the rock and then engage the plasma canon.

Disc Grinder - Undisclosed project/GameCo Studios

Prop design I did for an undisclosed project a few years ago. Not a weapon so much as a one-handed powertool to repair/break down elements in the environment with.


Disc grinders are such basic power tools that it was surprisingly tricky to find a design that stood out from the crowd while still looking somewhat functional, although the wisdom is of having a one-handed disc grinder is probably questionable.
